Abstract
An anteriorly-based lateral chest flap gives volar coverage to the opposite denuded hand, while a flap from the adjacent inner arm gives dorsal coverage. While transferring the flaps, the donor sites are joined together to form a temporary chest-arm adhesion, which is separated later with skin grafting.Keywords
